CAS 2836-32-0

Sodium glycolate

Description:

Sodium glycolate, with the CAS number 2836-32-0, is the sodium salt of glycolic acid, a simple alpha-hydroxy acid. It appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder that is hygroscopic in nature, meaning it can absorb moisture from the environment. Sodium glycolate is soluble in water, which makes it useful in various applications, including pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food products. It acts as a buffering agent and a pH adjuster, helping to stabilize formulations. Additionally, it has mild exfoliating properties, making it beneficial in skincare products. The compound is generally considered safe for use in cosmetic formulations, although it should be handled with care to avoid irritation. In terms of chemical structure, it contains a glycolate anion paired with a sodium cation, contributing to its properties and functionality. Overall, sodium glycolate is valued for its versatility and effectiveness in enhancing the stability and performance of various products.
